The Jacksonville Jaguars’ tough 47-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Monday Night Football in Week 3 of the 2024 NFL season has set off alarm bells for the team that has Trevor Lawrence as its star, to the point that the quarterback came out to talk about the concerns that arise from the current situation.

The Jaguarsā€˜ first two games were losses by less than a touchdown, but the tough loss to the Bills left them with an 0-3 record to start the season. Playoffs aspirations are fading, and criticism of Doug Pedersonā€˜s team is starting to get loud.

ā€œNobody’s coming to save us,ā€ Lawrence sternly warned NFL.com after the loss to Buffalo. ā€œIt’s one of those moments where we don’t have any momentum, it’s really hard to keep going,ā€ the quarterback said, adding, ā€œIt seems like everybody takes turns making a bad play at the wrong time, including me.

ā€œThat’s the NFL. The quarterback has to play well every week to give us a chance to win. I don’t feel like I’ve done that consistently enough. So I put that responsibility on myself,ā€ Lawrence completed. The 24-year-old finished the game against the Bills with 21 of 38 passes for 178 yards.
